The first three shots are so marvelous that they reminded me of National Geographics. Haha~ You did a great job!

Wkkay, mind to tell us how to upload high defination file to youtube?

I see!

I think we must pay Bali a visit. But, not right now as it's flooded.

Nice pics PCHO!

Thanks bro~ The LX3 will reach me tonight~ Hooray~

I will try my best shooting the celestial wonders but don't expect too much as my skill is limited and LX3 is not designed for this. Hehe~

2. I would prefer that the lens stick close to the ring and focus more on it rather than the skin.

8. The hamster is so cute and obedient!

Fuiyoh, PcHo~ Nice photo there! I will post up my "drafts" next week. Got to go to NUS to attend a talk by Dr.Jocelyn Bell, a very prominent professor that found the first radio pulsar when she was 19!

Hahaha.. You did a great job huh?

Hi DJFoo, I like your last pic. The whirlpool looks nice!

Playing with depth of field huh? Hehe~ The model car looks quite real! Good job!

@iamsobloodysick, the photo will look much better if you make the horizon line horizontally.

Bro, you're so adventurous? Haha...

This kind of spider is harmless? I'm trying to identify the creatures around me rather than trying to kill them.

PcHo, what does it look like he was sitting at the driver seat?

In my opinion, the photo is a bit underexposed and the focus is a bit soft. It's better to cover the whole spider by using a smaller aperture.

Just my 2 cents.

Yeah, increase to ISO400 will help a lot. Try not to use flash against animal. Who knows when will they get mad and bite you? Haha~

Really nice grasshopper! How did you manage to shoot it before it jumped away?

Yes. The F/2.0 of LX3 if compared to F/2.0 of DSLR lens, the DSLR is certainly brighter because of its larger aperture. Actually, F/2.0 isn't the aperture of the lens, it's the focal ratio of the lens.

Sorry for my limited optical knowledge.

The blurring effect is caused due to the inability of the fast lens (low focal ratio) to keep everything in range to be in focus. In Astrophotography, fast lens is loved for its ability to get brighter image in shorter time but hated for its very demanding precise focus. Oops.. off-topic.

So.. did I answer you?

I bet CPL filter is used! Hehe~

Cool pics! The bottom one is really great. I mean the feel and the lightning.

By the way, you got pretty big hands.
